Kids Desks Made To Grow With Your Child

Height adjustable between 540-1090mm, our kids desks and are suitable for children of all shapes and sizes, from 3 up to university age. This means our desks grow with your child, saving you from upgrading your desk every year or two.

It also means that whatever size your child, they can find the best seated position relative to the desk - helping them develop good postural habits which will hold them in good stead well into the future.

Child-Friendly Design & Robust Construction

Our children's desks are built to grow with your kid, and that means they need to be built to ensure whatever is thrown at them. Rugged MDF, steel construction, and a sturdy build are paired with easily wipe-clean surfaces - all designed with kids in mind. No more scrubbing marks from the kitchen table - our wipe-clean surfaces will take all the punishment your kid can throw at them.

What age should a child have a desk?

What age your child should have a desk is entirely up to you. A student desk can provide a dedicated place for study even for younger kids, helping to focus the mind, minimise distractions, and importantly make learning fun. Our kids desks and chairs are designed to grow with your child, and are adaptable to suit children from 3 years old all the way up to university age. So whenever you decide they’re ready, our desk will be ready too.

How do I choose a desk for my kid?

Choosing a desk for your kid, you should look for a design that is adjustable, offers a range of movements - and importantly is robust and can be easily cleaned. Our desks are built from MDF and reinforced with steel for toughness and durability, and the smoothed surfaces are designed to be easily wiped clean in the event of spillages and accidents.

Children can outgrow kids desks almost as fast as they outgrow clothes, which is why it’s crucial that you choose a desk that can adapt to your child's growth and progress. Choosing an adjustable desk will prevent your child from stooping as they grow, and help them maintain a healthy posture during those important developmental years. See our guide on how to choose a kids desk for more info.

Should Kids Have A Desk In Their Room?

Whether or not your kid needs a desk is entirely up to you. Providing a dedicated place to study, away from toys, television, devices and other distractions, can do wonders to help your child focus. Our desks have more than enough space for your kid to keep all of their study materials contained in one place, helping to prevent lost colouring pencils (and the rest) from hitting the floor.

Where should you put a desk in a child's room?

Where you should place the desk in your kids room depends of course on the space you have available - but there are a few things to bear in mind. You want ideally to find a spot with good light, but minimum distractions. Try to avoid placing the desk near a door or a window with a view, as this may distract your child. want to know more - see our post covering design aspects for your child's study space.

What is the best desk for a student?

The student desk is always going to be one that suits your kid best. Maintaining good posture is important at a young age, as we develop good habits which we can then carry on into life.

The benefits of a child's study desk include good postural habits that can only be learned at a desk that is the right size for the child - which is why we recommend a height-adjustable student desk in most cases. A student desk that grows with your kid is ideal, as you can simply raise the desktop when required. With a range up to 800mm, it could be several years before your child outgrows it!
